Nonlinear Systems and Their Remarkable Mathematical Structures
Nonlinear Systems and Their Remarkable Mathematical Structures, Volume 2 is written in a careful pedagogical manner by experts from the field of nonlinear differential equations and nonlinear dynamical systems (both continuous and discrete). This book aims to clearly illustrate the mathematical theories of nonlinear systems and its progress to both non-experts and active researchers in this area. Just like the first volume, this book is suitable for graduate students in mathematics, applied mathematics and engineering sciences, as well as for researchers in the subject of differential equations and dynamical systems. Features Collects contributions on recent advances in the subject of nonlinear systems Aims to make the advanced mathematical methods accessible to the non-experts Suitable for a broad readership including researchers and graduate students in mathematics and applied mathematics
